I will be having new friends over for dinner. I need ideas for a meal for someone who cannot eat gluten, wheat or dairy and is vegetarian.
So far the only ideas I have had are:

A veggy curry?
Some cabbage rolls stuffed with a mix of mushrooms,onions, rice, maybe some nuts, flavoured with soy sauce or herbs and served with a tomato sauce?
A mushroom stroganoff?
Perhaps some fruit sorbets for desert?

Doesn't seem very special.

Any ideas anyone please?

Sheesh. Who knew researching recipies would make you hungry ;)

Here's a link for you. A lot of it sounds really yummy.

This one looks REALLY good.

I had a delicious Thai pumpkin Curry recently. I can recommend that.
I believe it was vegetarian.

A spinach or zucchini soufflé seems to fit the bill too.

Have fun!

Soy sauce contains gluten.

Check into Indian (they are usually vegetarian) cookbooks -- at a bookstore or at your public library or online.

Here's a discussion board with some ideas about any meals (not just dinner) and what to be careful about --

No gluten, dairy, nor meat - help me please! - Home Cooking - Chowhound

What about a fresh-fruit salad?

Also, some vegetarians turn out to eat fish or shellfish such as shrimp. You might check.

I just checked out Gluten Free Girl. Nice!

Some great ideas there, I will peruse them at leisure. :)

I do have a Japanese soy sauce called Tamari that is wheat and gluten free Wondergirl but thanks for pointing that out, I wouldn't want to mislead anyone else because as you rightly say most Soy sauces aren't.

No fish etc, I did check.

I have cooked vegetarian lots of times, and vegan occasionally, before it's just factoring in the wheat-free and gluten-free at the same time that's making it a little tricky.

Thanks for those resources people. :)
If anyone has more I would love to build up a collection to add to my repertoire.
